Hey Freak!

Is it just me, or does everybody see random public nudity every once in a while? Let's see, in the past coupla years, I've stumbled upon a nude photo shoot in the park (at the Presidio), and I've seen people posing nude by the "Welcome to Nevada" sign on the way to Vegas.

Yesterday? I was downtown with my brother. He parked on the street, and I got out of his car, and the first thing I saw when I turned around was this lady pulling up her pants. Not just a little... they were down past her knees. I saw full naked strange lady ass. I tried to get a picture of the front, but... well, I didn't wanna get caught taking pictures, for one (another reason - whoa, not that pretty).

Anyways, we were trying to figure out what she was doing with her pants down. My brother said that he saw a wet spot, so we figured that she just peed there (as if peeing on a streetcorner in the middle of the day is normal). But then again, she was begging for money from everybody who walked by, and there were two other guys there with her (out of frame), so maybe she was selling peeks at her cat. I dunno.

Does this kinda stuff happen to anyone else? Like, maybe you've seen some road head or something?

Now, I never thought of myself as much of a conspiracy theorist... I'll leave that up to Mr. Fin (he occasionally blogs at Mouthfart, along with his wife, Ace).

But, yanno? I kinda wonder about some things... do you?

Like...

Do you think that the technology for more fuel-efficient cars is out there, but it's being quieted by the big automakers?

Do you think that technology exists to make non-fossil fuel vehicles? (hydrogen powered cars)

Do you think that there's a cure for cancer, but the drug companies aren't releasing it, because they're making too much money on "treatment"? (treating a problem for the rest of someone's life pays a lot better than just solving the problem, no?)

Do you think the government knows more than it's told us regarding extra-terrestrials?

What do you guys think? Could any of those things be true?

The reason I'm asking is because, well... have you heard of Mexoryl SX? It's an ingredient found in European and Canadian sunscreens, and it's supposedly by far better than any sunscreen in the US. So why isn't it sold here? Well, apparently, it hasn't been approved by the FDA. FDA approval could take years. But then again, this product has been out for years in Europe. So why are we so slow to get on the bandwagon?

Because there's money to be made in skin cancer.

But then again, you'd only think that if you were a conspiracy theorist, right? So, are you?

Do you believe?

OK, we've done the bar jokes. Let's try our hand at... Grosser than Gross jokes. Yes, I feel like I'm 12 again.

Q: What's grosser than gross?

A: Sitting on the bottom floor of a two-story outhouse.

Who the hell would make a two-story outhouse, anyways? That sounds like something out of Dilbert... where the top floor is the CEO's bathroom, and the bottom floor is where the rest of us sit. But, I digress.

Q: What's grosser than gross?

A: Drinking a Bloody Mary and finding a pube.

You turn. Leave your favorite/least favorite Grosser than Gross jokes. We could all use a laugh, even if it makes us sick.

Why is pot illegal, anyway? No, seriously... why?

OK, so. Shit, I dunno how to start this.

I know. Go read this post (note: that post has since been edited). I don't know this guy, and I've never heard of him before today (just stumbled on his blog). I have nothing against him at all.

Did you read it? Just out of curiousity, what kind of "vibe" did you get?

I'm asking because... well, sometimes, I tend to get a little over-sensitive when it comes to race and general discrimination issues. The fact that I'm a minority really brings this out in me. And when I read that post, I felt an all-too-familiar twinge.

So, we all know that racism is bad. Period. We can all agree on that, right?

Well, there are a lot of people who don't think that they're racists or bigots, but they totally are. You know, like Trent Lott. They always say the same shit... "I have black friends," blah blah blah, but behind closed doors, they're all nigger this and spearchucker that. Do you know what I mean? They're basically "closeted" bigots.

That's how I perceive this guy. Maybe he's just really full of himself or something, but his language, his context... it all tells me that he's one of those aforementioned closeted bigots. Obviously, I could be wrong. I'm just telling you the vibe I got.

Now, don't go and berate this guy or leave nasty comments on his blog - that's not my goal. He's got a right to his opinions just like anyone else. I'm just trying to figure out if I am truly over-sensitive to shit like this. And if I'm right, well then, maybe I'll make it easier for everybody else to spot closeted bigots, so that we can avoid them, or at the very least, disregard their bullshit. Or confront them on it. Bring their hatred out of the closet and into full public view. That kinda stuff.

So, be honest. Am I reading too much into what he's saying, or do I have a valid point? All opinions are welcome.

Well, unless you're a Celine Dion fan. Man, she's gross.

OK, by now, everybody's heard that Britney Spears is pregnant. And if you haven't heard, well, that's perfect for this. It's a multiple choice question:

"When I first heard that Britney was pregnant, the first thing I thought was..."

A) How great for them! I'm sure their child will be adorable.
B) I wonder if she was already pregnant when they got married...
C) I wonder who the father is?
D) Well, that explains her chunkiness lately.
E) There goes her career.
F) Just what the world needs... more white trash.

or

G) Who?
